Protecting Overseas Citizens From Malicious Criminal Prosecution & Extortion

A pervasive tactic used by commercial adversaries, unscrupulous relatives, or blackmailers in Pakistan is registering fabricated criminal First Information Reports (FIRs) against Non-Resident Pakistanis. Common fabricated charges include fraud and breach of trust (Sections 420/406 PPC), dishonored cheques (Section 489-F PPC), criminal intimidation, or retaliatory family offenses.

The objective of these false FIRs is almost always extortion—leveraging the threat of arrest at Karachi International Airport or notification on the Exit Control List (ECL) to coerce overseas citizens into surrendering valuable real estate or settling unverified debts.

Under the strategic direction of Senior High Court Trial Advocate Arslan Abid Naich, Naich Law Firm acts decisively. We file Criminal Miscellaneous Petitions under Section 561-A CrPC and Article 199 Constitutional Petitions before the High Court of Sindh to stay investigation, suspend non-bailable arrest warrants, and achieve complete quashment of the FIR on grounds of malice and abuse of process.

Frequently Asked Questions

Criminal Defense Guidance

We obtain certified copies of the First Information Report (FIR) and the police investigation record. Our advocates then file a Criminal Miscellaneous Application under Section 561-A of the Code of Criminal Procedure (CrPC) or a Constitutional Writ Petition under Article 199 before the High Court of Sindh. We establish before the High Court bench that the FIR is malicious, false, motivated by civil/financial disputes, or constitutes an abuse of the process of court, securing an interim stay on police harassment and a final quashment order.

Critical Caution

Never Land Without Bail

Do not attempt to land in Pakistan to 'sort things out with police' if a non-bailable FIR exists. Always secure High Court Protective Bail first to ensure you maintain total freedom of movement.
